System Center 2012 RC Versions available for Public Evaluation (along with some Betas)

Well after some hiatus from blogging I’m back to update you with stuff I learn for the System Center family of products and especially “Configuration Manager”.

I’ve been waiting since July 2011 the RC Version of Configuration Manager 2012 or better known as “System Center 2012 Configuration Manager”, notice the re-branding of the product, it’s not any more “System Center Configuration Manager 2012” it is “System Center 2012 Configuration Manager”, the same goes to the other products of the “System Center” family, now they are all named as “System Center 2012 Product Name”, it will take me some time to get used to it but that’s not a serious issue .

While I was an MVP (until June 30 2011) I knew that there would be an RC preview of “SC 2012 Configuration Manager” given to MVP and TAP Customers around August 2011 for evaluation and feedback collection, unfortunately I wasn’t re-awarded and haven’t had the chance to get the RC Preview for early evaluation.

And now the time has come for the Release Candidate (RC) version of Configuration Manager along with other products of the System Center Family, yesterday (27/10/11) the RC Version of Configuration Manager released for public evaluation, you may download either one or a selection of them here:
